The dental department is responsible for examining the hard and soft tissues that surround teeth on a clinical and microscopic level, diagnosing disorders that impact these tissues, prescribing treatments, and ensuring the maintenance of the improved health.
This condition usually comes on by a person’s poor oral hygiene habits, missing dentist routine checkups, the rotting teeth, the incorrect fillings, the incompatible prosthesis, and the improper or excessive use of systemic medications that follow. The condition gets worse as a result of gingival recessions brought on by improper tooth cleaning, patients disregarding gingival bleeding when brushing their teeth, and patients who neglect to seek dental care.
Gingiva (Your Gums) ;
– If it looks like an orange peel and has a light pink color,
– If you have a gingival border that surrounds your teeth from the beginning of the roots and continues along the tooth lines,
– If you do not have redness, swelling or infection complaints,
– If bleeding does not occur with normal brushing and thread use,
– If there is no pain in the gums after brushing,
– If you have strong-looking gums that hold your teeth tight,
Then, there is no problem with your gums.
– If your teeth bleed spontaneously or while brushing,
– If there is redness, swelling and an irregular appearance in the gums,
– If you have detected recession and exposed root surfaces in the gums,
If you feel pain in your gums from time to time, mild pain when pressed against the gums, inflammation leaking from the gums or sensitivity in the tooth in that area,
– If you see black areas on the gingival margins caused by tartar,
– If you have noticed the swaying, elongation and openings between the teeth,
– If you feel odor and bad taste in the mouth due to inflammation,
– If you feel itching or tingling in your gums,
Then, your gums are unhealthy.
Gingival Disease Treatment
Increasing knowledge of and guaranteeing the maintenance of dental and oral hygiene,
–Cleaning the established food plaque and teeth stones (Teeth Stone Cleaning)
–Deep cleansing of gingival pockets (curettage) – Including cleaning, curettage, and any medication the doctor recommends,
In severe conditions, periodontal surgical operations (sometimes known as “gum surgeries”) are used to stop bone loss and gingival recession as well as to stop recurrence. Mechanical and surgical procedures can be carried out using traditional or laser techniques. In recent years, gum disorders have been treated with laser technology.
